Central Nursery School

Each of these areas of focus is given attention throughout the day:

Language - Immersing the child in a rich language environment 
promotes interest in written and oral communication.

Literacy - Through exposure to various types of literature and 
writing experiences the child becomes connected to the written 
word and realizes its importance in sharing ideas.

Mathematics - Incorporating math in the classroom develops 
critical thinking skills and helps the child make connections to
the world around him or her.

Social/Emotional - A well balanced program will promote 
responsibility and positive attitudes through a sense of
belonging to a community.

Science/Exploration - Science is an active process
encouraging the student to engage in hands-on activity.  
Science has many practical connections to experiences in the 
child's world.

Creative Arts (Music/Movement and Visual Arts)
Encouraging self-expression through creative arts allows and 
encourages the child to communicate in a way that reflects his
or her own learning style.

Physical Health/Safety - Gross motor activity increases the 
child's confidence moving his or her body through space while 
improving strength, balance, coordination and body-control 
skills.  Overall healthful living and safety habits are encouraged
